Mount Everest, also known in Nepal as Sagarmāthā and in China as Chomolungma, is Earth's highest mtountain. Its peak is 8,848 metres (29,029 ft) above sea level. Mount Everest is in the Mahalangur Range. The international border between China (Tibet Autonomous Region) and Nepal runs across Everest's summit point.

Any avid climber I've ever asked about Everest says it has become just another "been thee, done that" spot for rich people. "Real climbers" don't go to destinations that are so "touristy"! Still would be a great place to see!

This Canadian TV show is filmed just outside of Sudbury, Ontario. The show stars Jared Keeso and Nathan Dales as Wayne and Daryl, two friends living in the small town of Letterkenny, Ontario, a fictional community loosely based on Keeso's own hometown of Listowel, Ontario.

That's right, Listowel, town of my birth! I didn't even live there for a year, so I can't really claim
It was my hometown. If you grew up rural, you will love this show. Even if you didn't, it's still pretty hilarious!

Please share if you've ever been to Sudbury, or Listowel, or if you just love this show!

Where is Kellyanne Conway?As far as I have researched, Conway is usually in the White House. Her official title is Counsellor to the POTUS, but she is also referred to as a senior advisor.If this is a query that many people are Googling, I would guess that it refers more to what Conway is doing at the White House. The details of her role in the Trump Administration seems to be evolving and changing, as with many other members of the President's staff.If you have heard something different, please share!As always, try the game out for yourself and share your own results!Have fun!

I will just summarize the situation. First of all, Lupul is a forward for the Toronto Maple Leafs. He was injured in December of 2015 and had surgery for a sports hernia in February 2016. He was supposed to play again in the 2016-2017 season, but started the season on the Injury reserve list. Since September of 2016, there is very little news on him, despite the fact he still has one more year on his contract with the Leafs.

I have a good friend who follows NHL happenings who says, "He's in California snorting anything he can find." I couldn't find anything on the net to verify this claim. I only found one post, and not a reputable one, from April 2017, stating that Lupul is skating and staying in shape in his home town of Fort Saskatchewan, Alberta. Bottom line is, he's basically disappeared and there are virtually no reports on his whereabouts or plans for the future.

Side note... This is our first result that has been about a person, not a place!

Located in the North Atlantic Ocean, directly east of Greenland, Iceland is Europe's western most country, the second largest island in the North-Atlantic Ocean, and a little over 3 hours flight from London, Paris or Copenhagen.

Do people really Google Iceland more than any other place that starts with I? I mean, I love that people are on the quest for knowledge, I just assumed it was common knowledge.

Ok, so that may be a little precocious, but it's like a huge island country in the Atlantic. People know this, right? I guess if you don't know what's two states West of you there might be issues.

Please share any awesome Iceland stories you have!
